High-contrast fluorescence between the amorphous and crystalline states is achieved in nickel- or bismuth-doped Ge;Sb;Te;phase-change memory thin films. Opposite phase-selective fluorescence effects are observed when different doping ions are used. The fluorescence intensity is sensitive to the crystallization degree of the films. This characteristic can be applied in reconfigurable multi-state memory and other logic devices. It also has likely applications in display and data visualization.展开更多
